This is a bad matchup for the Eagles to me. Pat has two weeks to heal and he's gonna spam Kelce and Pacheco to victory.

Jalen Hurts didn't really look right today throwing the ball.

I agree. The score in the Eagles game wasn't reflective of how the game actually was. They didn't put up much yardage.

Should be a great game.

It's hard to pick against Mahomes, but that Eagles defense is no joke, they have weapons on offense, and they are more healthy at the most important position.

This would be an extremely impressive win for the Chiefs if they're able to pull it out.

The Eagles are winning this game because they can run the ball at will. After what I saw against the 49ers, nobody can stop them from running the balll!

I don't think enough people appreciate what being able to run the ball whenever you want does for an offense

I'm getting 2015 Panthers vibes from the Eagles

Does hurts also get two weeks to heal his shoulder and a chance to spam brown smith goedert and his running game?

That's a fair point.

However, what's going to have a bigger impact? Hurts healing a bit more from a shoulder injury where he was still able to throw today, or Mahomes healing from a tougher and more impactful injury of a high ankle sprain?

Eagles may very well be the favorite, but I think the two weeks is more beneficial to Mahomes and the Chiefs. I'm not saying they are going to win, but I think that extra week of rest will have a bigger impact on the Chiefs than Eagles.

Have to give the Eagles a lot of credit for how they've built their team over the past few years. Took a chance on Hurts and got the pieces to surround him with, while putting together an aggressive defense.

They aren't just decent pieces on offense either. You have a very good HB in Sanders (and the rest of the stable), a top echelon TE on Goedert, a smooth route runner with great hands in Smith, and then a player that game be a major game-breaker in A.J. Brown.
